Succulent flower
The bee hovers in mid-air
Gathering pollen

Note: The bush this flower grows on is covered in these beautiful flowers in mid-summer. I wanted a photo with a close up of a honey bee for the haiku poem, and for my ‘writings’ scrapbook with another of my bee poems, recently published, so sent my husband Wayne out to get a shot of it with his camera, and he was able to get a good close up of one here. It was perfect. 🙂
